Boybeck Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 (edited) I'm looking to buy a couple of light sussex hens from this breeder in Fareham, Hampshire. http://www.rooksbridgepoultry.com Will growers (eight weeks) mix with my two ISA Browns?

Redwing Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Thats a good age to get them as you can tame them pretty easily but sadly they wouldnt be able to mix with your two ISA Browns until they are at least 18-20 weeks and able to stand p for themselves so they will need separate housing (which you would need for any intro anyway) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
